Eddie Cayce has come home to New Orleans. Good or bad, she’s made her bed and now she has to sleep in it, like her mama always said. Even though she loves the town where she grew up, the gift she’d been given from her late grandmother was causing problems. Major problems.
Her aunt isn't talking to her. Eddie’s talent is turned up to the equivalent of a million-watt light bulb. Walking down the street from her newly purchased antique store, she has to dodge questions and demands from the newly and not so dearly departed.
When her marketing associate, Tessa Hunt, dies unexpectedly, her ghost demands that Eddie find her killer, Eddie agrees to make some calls. Now if she could just keep Tessa from pushing her bad marketing tactics from beyond the grave.
All Eddie wants is a little piece and quiet so she can run her new business and find the perfect house. Is that too much to ask? Apparently, the answer is yes, at least in New Orleans.
A Medium Homecoming by Lynn Cahoon has Eddie Cayce trying to start anew in again in New Orleans without feeling like a burden to her older brother.
Will Eddie get Tessa to move on before she can hear any more lousy marketing advice?
Eddie Cayce
Eddie is back in New Orleans to live out her life like her family has always wanted for her. She forgot how bad it was living down there with her ability, and now she has to live with her decision. She loves being back in New Orleans but to not seem like an insane person, she uses her phone as an excuse. Eddie is becoming a fantastic character, and I like seeing how she was raised, coming back to her. I love how she helps people who need it and accepts who she is. The one thing that I worry about is the rest of Eddie’s family.
The Mystery
The day before, Eddie has a marketing meeting with Doyle and Tessa. They will pitch their ideas for her new store and the rebranding she wants. Only to be blindsided by Tessa’s ideas of keeping the original name. Eddie then finds out the next day from Doyle, that Tessa is deceased. Doyle will be handling her account. She sees Tessa’s ghost in her shop and has been ordered to find out who killed her. I guessed who killed her, but not the motive that had me stumped. Well, until it was revealed to us, I just thought, well, that’s not a great reason to be killed, but oh well.
Five Stars
A Medium Homecoming by Lynn Cahoon had me guessing who could have done it between three suspects. Well, only two in my head, as one of them just didn’t fit the bill, and then the other seemed like a big red herring. Ms. Cahoon has a great way of weaving a fabulous tale while sprinkling clues you didn’t realize connected until they did. I am giving A Medium Homecoming by Lynn Cahoon five stars and recommending it.
